First semester of 2021

Record volume of net electricity sales and $388-million or 24% increase in net income in the first six months of 2021

Under the combined impact of an increase in net electricity sales in Québec, a jump in net export volume and a decline in financial expenses, Hydro-Québec posted net income of $1,993 million for the first half of 2021, up $388 million compared to the $1,605 million recorded for the same period in 2020.

This improvement with respect to last year reflects the resumption of economic activities in Québec and bodes well for the months ahead.
